For the unfamiliar; the iPad will put itself to sleep and turn the screen off when it’s not in use after a short amount of time, this mechanism is the default because it helps to preserve battery life and can improve device security.
Step 1 - Edit Display Auto-Lock
To eidit auto-lock, head to Settings > Accessability > Guided Access > Display Auto-Lock - then select a period of time for your device to 'auto-lock'

Tip 3 - Brightness
iPads offer an auto-brightness option in the iOS settings called 'true tone' which uses the device’s ambient light sensor to detect the light levels in the room and automatically adjust the display brightness accordingly. But sometimes iOS’s “guess” at what the iPhone’s brightness should be isn’t what you want.
Step 1 - Adjust Auto Brightness
To disable auto-brightness, head to Settings > Display & Brightness - from here you can turn 'true tone' on or off and adjust the brightness of your screen.
